A place to share screenshots of Microblog posts, whether from Mastodon, tumblr, ~~Twitter~~ X, KBin, Threads or elsewhere.
Created as an evolution of White People Twitter and other tweet-capture subreddits.
RULES:
- Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
- Absolutely no NSFL content.
- Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
- No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

jfc, could they make it any more fucking ominous?
Plus, the whole "you can easily disable it by puncturing the lung-analog air tank in its torso with a weapon or projectile" and "the horns are to slow it down moving through doorways" bits. What exactly are you trying to design against again because that sounds like a creature, or at the very least something autonomous, not a remote operated robot.
It's a teleoperated robot, not an autonomous machine. They're designing against bad actors who might use the robot as a murderbot
Surely this is satire, right?
No, it is satyress.
Possible, but I feel like a lot of effort went in for it to only be satire. No obvious AI images, multiple views of the thing including close up of the "hand" and they're all consistent. Could be made as an art sculpture and this is the satirical product page, maybe.
Looks like all the current news coverage of it is reacting as if it's real/credible as well.
Did you not read the company name...?
Now that's comedy.
"You can stop it with any handgun"
sorry, dark mode users
It was supposed to be white? I see it black on my dark mode
That's the problem, due to a transparent background it's black on dark, making it near-invisible
